Maternity photography is a celebration of the journey into motherhood. for me, its capturing the essence, beauty & and love that is already bonding mother & baby. Pregnancy is a beautiful transformative experience where inner strength and joy can shine through in a single photograph. Maternity portraits encapsulates the deep bond the forms between mother and her unborn baby. they serve as a reminder of the unbreakable link that exsist between mother and child.

Your maternity portrait session experience starts here! Once you've completed the contact form, I will reach out to you either in 24-36 business hours. 

I will also send you information about how my maternity sessions work and more. We will then have a short phone call to discuss your vision for your session. 

If you decide to move forward with a maternity session, we will then plan a date, and your session fee will be collected. 

1. Say Hello

Once your session fee has been collected we will then plan your perfect session. From dresses to backdrops, you and I will discuss all the ends and outs of your maternity session. We will then pick a date that works for you and me and my hair and make up team. Maternity sessions are normally photographed M-F during business hours. 

2. Schedule it

When your session day finally arrives you will arrive at my home sudio where you will be pampered by my hair and makeup team. Once hair and makeup is finished you will head into my studio and we will start your session. I provide couture dresses, silk fabrics, wraps and bodysuits. 

Family members are welcome to attend your maternity session as well. I love having couples in the studio! 

Once your session is completed, we will discuss your reveal and ordering appointment. 

3. your session

About a week after your session, we will have your reveal and ordering appointment. This is normally done via zoom, but I am happy to accommodate any needs for in person reveals. 

Your reveal appointment is where you will see your maternity portraits for the first time. Some images will be edited so you can envision what your final artwork will look like. You will also be able to purchase any heirloom artwork and pieces to display in your home. 

4. the Reveal

After we finalize the retouching of your fine art images you will receive the digital copies in an online album. Please allow 2-3 weeks for digitals and 4-6 week for products and artwork. Specialty artwork like the guilded canvas may take longer. 

Once your heirloom artwork and images have been delivered I will check them over to test for any abnormalities. Once checked over, I will either deliver your products to you personally, or mail them to you. The are then yours to enjoy for your lifetime!

The Session Details

Beautiful & fun sessions that
result in artwork on your walls

From the very first time I spoke with Ansley I knew this was going to be a great experience. She did our maternity pictures and will do newborn pictures when our baby arrives. She made me feel so comfortable, we laughed and had a blast during the entire shoot. Our maternity pictures are absolutely magical. The entire experience was dreamy, from the hair and make up, to picking our pictures out. Choose Van Epps photography! You will not be disappointed!
